WHAT'S YOUR PAGE ABOUT?
Hello, and welcome to my page! I'm so happy you're here and can't wait to bring you along my health journey as I navigate celiac, Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS), and dysautonomia. I hope my page will provide a sense of community among people struggling with chronic illness, as well as tools to help you cultivate joy and fulfillment in your own life. Here, I will share my experience with various therapeutic diets (low-FODMAP, candida diet, gluten-free, autoimmune paleo - AIP, elemental diet, low histamine, etc.) and my experience with managing symptoms. This page is in no way intended for medical advice but rather to normalize conversations around chronic illnesses. Having been on various therapeutic diets, I've spent a substantial amount of time in the kitchen due to having to focus on the ingredients I'm consuming carefully. This has forced me to be more creative with my meals and create recipes that accommodate different therapeutic diets. I have developed a love for making homemade dishes, pastries, snacks, and desserts while ensuring they're not overly time-consuming (all of which I plan to share with you here!).
A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME
I previously majored in nutritional science, but due to worsening neurological symptoms, I made the difficult decision of returning home and finishing my degree remotely with Boston University so I could focus on healing. During this time, I also received my health coaching certification from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. In the fall, I will be attending Teachers College, Columbia University to receive a MS in Nutrition and Public Health, with the intention of becoming a registered dietitian and directly involving myself in research and initiatives to support those with chronic illness.
Aside from my passion for nutrition and spreading awareness around chronic illness, I love spending time in nature, reading (especially fantasy books), spending time with God (my faith is fundamental to me), writing, quality time with friends and family, baking, playing the piano, going to cozy cafes, and pilates!
Did you know I have a Celiac Disease Quickstart mini-course?
Receiving a celiac diagnosis can be daunting. I remember when I was first diagnosed with celiac, and there was so much confusion surrounding what was safe and what wasn't. That's why I made The Celiac Disease Quickstart: To quickly ease you into life with celiac. In this mini-course, I discuss the science surrounding celiac, what gluten is and how it impacts celiacs, cross-contamination, reading labels at the grocery store, and everything in between!
